The Genie 55953GT is a genuine OEM Grease Zerk, 1/4-28, Straight designed for the Genie GTH-636 telehandler. This fitting threads directly into grease ports on pivot points, pins, and bushings across the machine, giving technicians a clean, secure connection point for a grease gun during routine lubrication service. As a factory-authorized part, it meets Genie's exact thread pitch and body dimensions, so it seats properly and accepts standard grease-gun couplers without leaking or backing out.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Dimensional Conformity — Manufactured to Genie's exact 1/4-28 thread spec, ensuring full thread engagement and a leak-free seat at every lubrication port.
- Straight Configuration for Direct Access — The straight body profile suits grease ports with clear, unobstructed access, making service faster and easier without adapter fittings.
- Confirmed Fit for the GTH-636 — Verified for the Genie GTH-636 telehandler; cross-reference part number 55953GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm the correct port location.
- Keeps Lubrication Service on Schedule — A damaged or missing zerk prevents grease from reaching critical wear points. Replacing it promptly with the correct fitting restores full serviceability to that pin or bushing location.
- Compatible with Standard Grease-Gun Couplers — The ball-check seat accepts the industry-standard coupler tip, so your existing grease gun connects cleanly without slippage or grease bypass.
A grease zerk — also called a grease fitting or grease nipple — is a small one-way valve threaded into a pin boss, bushing housing, or pivot point on a machine. When a grease gun is pressed against it, the internal ball check opens and allows grease to flow into the bearing or bushing; when the gun is removed, the ball reseats and keeps contaminants out. A zerk that is stripped, broken, or cross-threaded blocks the flow of lubricant entirely, allowing metal-to-metal contact to accelerate wear on the components it serves. Replacing a failed fitting with the correct OEM part restores the lubrication path and protects the surrounding components from premature wear.
